When I'm done, I give him a bit (depending if it's safe for him). This way, Kai learnt that he gets nothing while I eat..and if he's good he gets some at the end. I even left a HUGE juicy hamburger right in front of him and left him alone in the room for a couple minutes...out of sight but I still could see him...he didn't touch the thing. This also helps with dominance(SP?) issues. The pack leader ALWAYS eats first...however much the leader wants...the scrap goes to the other group members. Hope this helps =]
Thats the same thing that i did with Foxy and it works.
